Sebastian Vettel’s dominance in Singapore gave him his third ‘grand slam’. Here’s the top five stats from the race.

Vettel’s third ‘grand slam’

Pole position, fastest lap, led every lap, won the race: it’s hard to be much more dominant than Vettel was in the Singapore Grand Prix. This was the third ‘grand slam’ of his career – he dominated the 2011 Italian and 2012 Japanese races in similar fashion.

Grand slams are fairly uncommon and only six drivers in F1 history have more than Vettel. Jim Clark leads the list with eight, Alberto Ascari and Michael Schumacher scored five, Jackie Stewart, Ayrton Senna and Nigel Mansell had four.

Three-in-a-row in Singapore for Vettel

Vettel conquered the streets of Singapore for the third year in a row. This marked the first time in five years that a driver has won three times in a row at the same venue – Felipe Massa did so at Istanbul Park from 2006 to 2008.

Gutierrez cracks Q3

Esteban Gutierrez reached the top ten shoot out for the first time in his F1 career having failed to progress beyond Q1 in eight of the previous races this year. But he’s yet to score a point so far this season.

Red Bull catch Renault

Red Bull claimed their 51st race victory which means they have now won as many races as Renault, who competed as a manufacturer from 1977 to 1985 and 2002 to 2011.

Singapore gets quicker

The revisions to the Singapore circuit, including a revised turn ten and some resurfacing, helped produce the quickest lap ever seen around the track. Vettel’s pole position time of 1’42.841 was inside last year’s mark by three-and-a-half seconds.
